Fastest trip ever, they had the coolest fruits there, I drank something that looks like mud but it made your mouth go numb

Amazing experience, but I actually got 2nd degree burns over my body from the sun and I had to walk around with a towel on my head everywhere for a week and a half

Australia

I lived here for 6 months on exchange

Craziest views, we went into the cloud forest, most friendly people ever
